Adding a touch of gourmet to the portfolio, Lay’s, one of India’s favorite potato chip brands, has launched a premium range of slow-cooked premium kettle chips, Lay’s Gourmet. Said to be crafted for those who seek to indulge in finer snacking experiences, the latest offering is available in three delicious flavors – lime & cracked pepper, Thai sweet chili and vintage cheese & paprika.

Made from carefully selected, high quality potatoes, Lay’s Gourmet chips are seasoned and made with combinations of exquisite ingredients. Every crunchy bite of this thickly sliced golden-curled chip is filled with lip-smacking flavors and aromas that are perfect for a well-deserved moment of indulgence.
